Abstract: A gas jacket is provided in a lower portion of a cylinder block, so that an exhaust
gas in an exhaust gas passage is supplied to the gas jacket through an exhaust gas
supply passage having an exhaust gas supply valve. Fresh air in an intake passage is
supplied to an intake passage through a fresh-air supply passage having a fresh-air
supply valve. The temperature of a lower cylinder wall is controlled in a feedback
manner to a target temperature for the lower cylinder wall. The target temperature for
the lower cylinder wall is set at a sufficiently high temperature in a range in which an oil
film of lubricating oil, extending from an intermediate portion of the cylinder wall to a
bottom dead center of a piston, can be ensured. Therefore, the viscosity of the
lubricating oil can be decreased to minimize the friction loss at slide portions of the
cylinder wall and the piston, thereby providing an increase in engine output, a
reduction in amount of fuel consumed and a reduction in lubricating oil consumed.

genome of the natural strain to provide at least two copies
of one or more of the natural genes or genetic mutation
